Figure shows three transparent media of refractive indices `mu_1, mu_2 and mu_3`. A point object O is placed in the medium `mu_2`. If the entire medium on the right of the spherical surface has refractive index `mu_1`, the image forms at O'. If this entire medium has refractive index `mu_3` the image form at O''. In the situation shown

A

the image forms between O' and O''

B

the image forms to the left of O'

C

the image forms to the right of O'

D

two images form one at O' and the other at O''
